I called you up from the city of love, I could tell you’d been crying
All the dreams that you wanted to see, falling away and dying
You told me once that you needed a friend, a shoulder to put a head on Right away we began to play, excited for the new dawn
Please, where we going today, Please don’t you take me away, I know I see all I needed to see, I’m riding the road back to love
Saw you once you remembered my name, in the back of a greyhound Simon says that its time to fly, find the dime then its homebound
I got witnesses on record tonight, confirmation’s been granted
Time to ride, I got my spirits and wine I can hardly stand it
Please, where we going today, Please won’t you take me away, I know I see all I needed to see, I’m riding the road back to love
I’ve got something inside me, quiet and hiding, afraid to speak
People are flying while I sit here lying too humble and weak
Everybody’s gotta be something, that’s what they say,
Something is a whole lot of nothing, out of my way
Please, where we going today, Please don’t you take me away, I know I see all I needed to see, I’m riding the road back to love
I’ve got something inside me, quiet and hiding, afraid to speak, People are flying while I sit here lying too humble and weak
Too humble and weak, people are flying crying
Too humble and weak, people are flying crying
Everybody's gotta be something, flying crying
Everybody's gotta be something, flying crying
